But sometimes people have difficulty with cognition and memory because they have high blood pressure for years and they've stopped

good blood flow with oxygenated blood to their brain because it's like the pipes are under strain.

They can't allow blood flow when your blood pressure is high.

You may not feel anything, but the blood isn't circulating the way you want it to.

And all of these factors are not just good to prevent dementia if that runs in your family, but also diabetes, cancer, high insulin, for example, one of the biomarkers I mentioned.

can tell us decades before you get diabetes that you're at risk for diabetes.

And because insulin is an inflammatory factor, it also causes and is related to cancers.

Yes, and that's a great fact.

I will say, however, that there are people who have done bad stuff, like they've smoked three packs a day, but because they have a certain body makeup, they're blowing out all the candles on their cake at 103.

And there are others who look like they're in phenomenal shape.

And I have those patients that I take care of.

They look like they're great.

They have less than 10 percent body fat.

Their VO2, which is their performance in terms of their hearts and lungs, are at a level of a 25 to 30 year old.

Yet they still develop disease.

So it's not the same stroke for everybody.

Each one of us is unique.

And being able to use a wearable can tell us how we're changing and what we could do.

For example, me.

There are studies done out of Israel that show they measured a thousand people and they looked at their sugars.
